Writing is a solo act, but it is a different experience when you connect with fellow
writers.
When our Creative Writing Short Term Course started in Delhi at the Sri Aurobindo Centre for Arts and
Creativity in 2010, we had not imagined it would evolve the way it did, covering over 1,000
participants. It was overwhelming to see numerous students become published authors. Many moved into
becoming content writers, copywriters, journalists, and editors.
At the SACAC's Writing School, we will continue to handhold all those who aspire to use writing as a
form of self-expression and creativity.
Creative Writing is one of the most fulfilling ways to express oneself!
Our creative writing course in Delhi was started to help participants sharpen their
writing skills and unlock the writer within. Everyone has stories to tell. Our
creative
writing classes guide you in shaping them with powerful tools and
techniques.
Yes, writing can be taught! Every week, we witness participants grow through
hands-on
exercises in our indoor and outdoor creative writing workshops. Each batch is
vibrant,
with individuals from all walks of life, doctors, engineers, software developers,
teachers, YouTubers, journalists, and grandmothers. Their diverse backgrounds fuel
creativity, transforming the classroom into a buzzing creative lab. Many of our
participants became published authors.
Our creative writing courses cover prose, short stories, novels, flash fiction,
travelogues, and screenwriting. It's not just a hobby; it's a transformative
skill-building experience. Writing boosts the clarity of thought, sharpens
communication, and brings a deep sense of fulfilment.
This is among India's few creative writing courses designed with rigour, creativity,
and
heart. Taught by experienced faculty, this creative writing institute in India
focuses
on practical assignments, discipline, and confidence-building.
As seats are limited, admission is based on an entrance exam to ensure genuine
participants are handpicked. Discover the joy of storytelling by joining one of
Delhi's
most inspiring writing courses!
